Coronavirus and your community

Today, I'm asking you to turn your campaigning zeal wholeheartedly towards helping your community during this Coronavirus crisis.

We can all make a difference - each and every one of us.

One of the many things that unites Liberal Democrats is our campaigning zeal for our communities. Our drive to change things for the better. A way of working that engages local people in our campaigns.

Today, I'm asking you to turn your campaigning zeal wholeheartedly towards helping your community during this Coronavirus crisis.

To help you, we're issuing new guidance to party members - you can find it here: www.libdems.org.uk/covid19. And we will be collecting and sharing best practice over the next few days and weeks about how our community politics can best help.

In short - I'm asking Lib Dem teams all across the UK to make community activism helping vulnerable people during this crisis our campaigning priority.

We're a party that cares about people, cares about communities and cares about the most vulnerable. I'm proud of this party, and I'm sure we will all rise to this national challenge.

Whatever happens, we can make a difference.
